How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

This Benzocaine 2%/Menthol 0.2%/Thymol 0.2% Troche formulation is a compounded medication designed to treat a range of oral conditions such as sore throat, mouth sores, and other oral irritations. The troche is a square-shaped solid dosage form that is meant to dissolve slowly in the mouth, allowing for the active ingredients to be released and absorbed through the oral mucosa. This targeted delivery system ensures that the medication is delivered directly to the affected area, providing relief from pain and discomfort.

The active ingredients in this formulation include Benzocaine, Menthol, and Thymol. Benzocaine is a local anesthetic that functions by blocking nerve signals in the affected area, providing temporary relief from pain and discomfort. Menthol, a natural cooling agent, helps to reduce inflammation and provides a cooling sensation to the affected area. Thymol, an antiseptic, aids in reducing bacteria and other microorganisms in the mouth, thereby reducing the risk of infection.

When using this Benzocaine 2%/Menthol 0.2%/Thymol 0.2% Troche formulation, it is crucial to adhere to the instructions provided by your healthcare provider. The troche should be placed in the mouth and allowed to dissolve completely before swallowing. It is important not to chew or swallow the troche whole. If you have any questions about how to use this formulation, it is recommended to consult with your healthcare provider or pharmacist.

Enter the formula as a compound

Compounded preparations have no NDC, so this formula will not appear in your EHR's drug search. Use your system's compound, non-formulary, or free-text prescription entry and name the preparation exactly as written in step 3. If your EHR forces you to pick a listed drug, pick the closest entry for the active ingredient and put the full formula in the prescription body (the Sig or directions field), not in Notes to Pharmacy.

Compounded preparations have no NDC and will not appear in your drug search. For EPCS to validate, select a drug entry your EHR recognizes as controlled, usually the bulk powder entry for the active ingredient (for example Ketamine (bulk) powder, not a branded product), then put the full formula from step 3 in the prescription body. A free-text entry that does not validate as controlled will be rejected by your EPCS module.
